Lea Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I thought you you were one of the bigger Oasis fans here Farin. Maybe I'm confusing them with REM when it comes to your fandom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 umno, actually I don't DISlike them so much, a few of their songs are very good, but me fan? not so much and R.E.M. is much better, that's true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ombre Vivante Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 - franz ferdinand, the killers, the bravery, british sea power, the klaxons, and the majority of that nu new wave wankery. - any rap from 1990 onward. - the white stripes, kings of lean, kaiser chiefs, and the rest of that crap. - tool, chevelle, coal, audioslave, and all of that irritating rock. - clodplay and sno patrol.

MindCrime Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Oasis I've grown to like them a bit, but I concur. I couldn't stand them back in the mid-90's when they were all the rage in the post-Cobain alternative world. I also don't care much for Barenaked Ladies.

RockyRaccoon Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Dave Matthews Band. I just can't get into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 ^ I like maybe one of Matthew's songs, I never understood what the big deal is. He's mediocre and boring to listen to.

Ombre Vivante Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Coldplay fall within your genre tastes? You listen to 'whine'? There is some decent Wuss Rock out there - Travis, Aqualung, Melpo Mene. clodplay and snusnu patrol just don't cut it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ombre Vivante Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 you DO listen to 'whine'! Proper term is "Wuss Rock" and it is the successor to most of the BritPop you listen to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 it's not really called Wuss Rock you made that up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I've heard it called Mope Rock, meself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamisammy29 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 No, I believe that is the correct term. The bands listed above are the descendents of such Wuss Rock pioneers as Barry Manilow, Journey, Phil Collins and Dave Matthews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ombre Vivante Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 it's not really called Wuss Rock you made that up! Everything I post here is based on facts... SONGFACTS Hey, sammy, you forgot Jackson Browne and Neil Diamond, but I think they're more of a proto-Wuss Rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levis Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Blur are more whiny than Suede. Suede yelp. I mean just compare Tender to Stay Together. This is before Thom Yorke came along with the aim of sucking whatever testosterone was left out of popular music. I give him props for being able to sell it, though, he's like Freud.

coffeegod Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 (edited) O_O Cash, check or paypal? Oh, should I ever attain the higher rankings, is there any chance I could be known as a Coelacanth? I've never been a coelacanth and I think it might be kinda cool to be a fish that was thought extinct but really isn't.....
